The Collection
Here it is, the one all of us Tim Bowman fans have been waiting for - THE TIM BOWMAN COLLECTION, capturing the engaging guitar style of one of the best-loved Smooth Jazz players on the scene today. This “Best Of” package includes songs from all of Tim’s albums, ranging from his 1996 debut release, LOVE, JOY, PEACE through 1998’s PARADISE, SMILE from 2000, and 2008’s self-titled smash, in addition to three brand new tracks. One of them, “Let It Shine,” the first radio single, is heading for the higher reaches of the charts as we speak, with “All My Life” waiting in the wings. The other new song, the inspirational “My Prayer, My Praise,” features vocals from Ladon Ford, Dodi Alexander, and also Tim’s son, Tim Jr. THE TIM BOWMAN COLLECTION truly captures why, when it comes to Smooth Jazz guitar, it just doesn’t get any better than this! ~ SCOTT O'BRIEN
